If you are on a BES, there's nothing you can do with the software if your employer wants to track you. Really, your only solution is to cover the BB in foil, which will probably prevent the receiver from working.

If you phone is provided by your employer he would be quite upset and could fire you for disabling the GPS tracking. When you are off duty you can turn the phone off if your job does not require it be on and use a personal cell phone when not at work.

Just like at the office, you boss has the right to track your computer usage, during working hours he can track your location, if he wishes.

Am I missing something big here? I thought that the GPS in the 8800 was a receiver. Your employer can't track you. Your carrier can, through cell tower triangulation with the E911 service. That is a legal requirement.

"The BlackBerry® 8800 comes with a built-in Global Positioning System (GPS). Use it with a mapping application like BlackBerry® Maps and you can view your current location with greater accuracy and track your route to your target destination.

Built-in GPS also gives you access to a wide range of other Location-Based Services (LBS), like employee and resource tracking, social networking and more."
